Previuos owner had paint left over from painting their "Auto One shop" so used the paint on the van..

Just needs a little TC on the outside and a coat of paint in your favourite colours.

Unregistered but can be towed safely. all lights work and has new tyres.

I will give it a few days here and on www.vintagecaravans.com.
If no one is interested I will possibly give it a snad and a coat of paint over the long weekend and maybe place it on ebay.
Please consider .
